On Saturday, December 9, all are invited to a Puppet Show & Artist Open House—with cupcakes!! This event is free; registration is not required. At 1:00 p.m., Puppeteer Pam Corcoran and her needle-felted marionettes will present “Donkey Tales,” a double feature of the Bremen Town Musicians and a sweet tale about a cold-eared donkey. Corcoran has brought old and new stories to life with her original hand-made puppets since 1983. This kid-centered experience will wrap up with an opportunity to try out Pam’s puppets under her expert guidance. Then stick around to meet Puppet Maker Ken Vogel himself and learn about his puppet-making process during an open house from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., with cupcakes and other light refreshments provided for all guests. A variety of Vogel’s works will be available for sale, with a portion of the proceeds donated by the artist back to the museum.
